For that, we will need some tools to know if we are building for Release
(and let say Beta) where the feature should be hidden by default, with
opposition to Aurora, Nightly or custom builds where the feature should
be enabled by default.
Also, how would that work for things that doesn't have
Nightly/Aurora/Beta/Release channels?

IMO, this is currently the main reason why prefixing is a pain: we want
to allow devs to try the feature easily and Nightly/Aurora is there for
that but having to disable the feature as soon as it reaches Beta is
just too much maintenance.
